The White House and the Biden Campaign are not happy with their media friends in the aftermath of the Robert Hur report and President Joe Biden’s world leader gaffes. As they tell it, the media does not do an adequate job covering all of Donald Trump’s equivalent statements. On her Friday show on MSNBC, Andrea Mitchell not only agreed, but claimed that this is what happened to Hillary Clinton…

Since 2008, the NewsBusters archives shows the intensive political coverage surrounding the New Hampshire primary has been a chance for journalists to take gratuitous potshots at conservative candidates, while liberals (often referred to as “moderates”) are treated to rock-star treatment.

In a CNN This Morning segment trying to understand why Donald Trump's fiery rhetoric doesn't seem to be hurting him with Republican primary voters, two panelists expressed a similar view: that the GOP voters don't hear Trump the way the press, and others outside their realm, do.

On Tuesday, the tax-funded PBS NewsHour feted Democrat Hillary Clinton, now a professor at Columbia University at the new Institute of Global Politics.
